Imagine Blackburn back in 1910 when Woodlands was built Horse drawn carts and carriages would have clip-clopped past on Whitehorse Road, with locally grown produce being delivered to Blackburn railway station.
Times have changed and the horse-drawn vehicles are long gone. Even with the passage of time, the home has retained much of its charm and features of yesteryear especially with its high ceilings (warm in winter and cool in summer)not to mention the traditional Baltic floors.
Extended and renovated along the way, the home now has 2 spacious formal and casual living areas, very large kitchen featuring an upright stove and dishwasher, meals area and 3 bedrooms with built in wardrobes plus luxury spa bathroom and ensuite. There’s also numerous extras including ducted heating and air conditioner, attic storage and open fireplace as well as a covered deck at the rear, garage converted into a gym or rumpus room and easily converted back to a garage if required, plus two comfortable bungalows with shared toilet between them and leafy, peaceful gardens to enjoy.
It’s now time to refresh and renovate, and let a new family to enjoy this classic Australian homestead, in a prime area of Melbourne’s eastern growth corridor, on a huge 966m2 (approx.) allotment.
